9 2.0 Applicable standards and reference documentation The drive has been developed as a system peripheral to the highest standards of design and construction. The drive depends upon its host equipment to provide adequate power and environment in order to achieve optimum performance and compliance with applicable industry and governmental regulations. Special attention must be given in the areas of safety, power distribution, shielding, audible noise control, and temperature regulation. In particular, the drive must be securely mounted in order to guarantee the specified performance characteristics. Mounting by bottom holes must meet the requirements of Section Standards The Savvio SCSI family complies with Seagate standards as noted in the appropriate sections of this Manual and the Seagate SCSI Interface Product Manual, part number The Savvio SCSI disc drive is a UL recognized component per UL1950, CSA certified to CSA C22.2 No , and VDE or TUV certified to EN Electromagnetic compatibility The drive, as delivered, is designed for system integration and installation into a suitable enclosure prior to use. As such the drive is supplied as a subassembly and is not subject to Subpart B of Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Regulations nor the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications. The design characteristics of the drive serve to minimize radiation when installed in an enclosure that provides reasonable shielding. As such, the drive is capable of meeting the Class B limits of the FCC Rules and Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications when properly packaged. However, it is the user s responsibility to assure that the drive meets the appropriate EMI requirements in their system. Shielded I/O cables may be required if the enclosure does not provide adequate shielding. If the I/O cables are external to the enclosure, shielded cables should be used, with the shields grounded to the enclosure and to the host controller Electromagnetic susceptibility As a component assembly, the drive is not required to meet any susceptibility performance requirements. It is the responsibility of those integrating the drive within their systems to perform those tests required and design their system to ensure that equipment operating in the same system as the drive or external to the system does not adversely affect the performance of the drive. See Section and Table 2, DC power requirements. Savvio SCSI Product Manual, Rev. D 3

10 2.2 Electromagnetic compliance Seagate uses an independent laboratory to confirm compliance to the directives/standard(s) for CE Marking and C-Tick Marking. The drive was tested in a representative system for typical applications. The selected system represents the most popular characteristics for test platforms. The system configurations include: Typical current use microprocessor 3.5-inch floppy disc drive Keyboard Monitor/display Printer External modem Mouse Although the test system with this Seagate model complies to the directives/standard(s), we cannot guarantee that all systems will comply. The computer manufacturer or system integrator shall confirm EMC compliance and provide CE Marking and C-Tick Marking for their product. Electromagnetic compliance for the European Union If this model has the CE Marking it complies with the European Union requirements of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 89/336/EEC of 03 May 1989 as amended by Directive 92/31/EEC of 28 April 1992 and Directive 93/68/EEC of 22 July Australian C-Tick If this model has the C-Tick Marking it complies with the Australia/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS and meets the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Framework requirements of Australia s Spectrum Management Agency (SMA). Korean MIC If this model has the Korean Ministry of Information and Communication (MIC) logo, it complies with paragraph 1 of Article 11 of the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Control Regulation and meets the Electromagnetic Compatibility Framework requirements of the Radio Research Laboratory (RRL) Ministry of Information and Communication Republic of Korea. Taiwanese BSMI If this model has two Chinese words meaning EMC certification followed by an eight digit identification number, as a Marking, it complies with Chinese National Standard (CNS) and meets the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Framework requirements of the Taiwanese Bureau of Standards, Metrology, and Inspection (BSMI). 4 Savvio SCSI Product Manual, Rev.

13 3.0 General description Savvio SCSI drives combine Tunneling Magnetoresistive (TMR) heads and a wide Ultra320 SCSI interface to provide high performance, high capacity data storage for a variety of systems including engineering workstations, network servers, mainframes, and supercomputers. Ultra320 SCSI uses negotiated transfer rates. These transfer rates will occur only if your host adapter supports these data transfer rates and is compatible with the required hardware requirements of the I/O circuit type. This drive also operates at SCSI-1 and SCSI-2 data transfer rates for backward compatibility with non-ultra/ultra2/ Ultra320 SCSI host adapters. Table 1 lists the features that differentiate the Savvio SCSI models. Table 1: Drive model number vs. differentiating features Model number Number of heads Formatted Capacity ST973401LC ST936701LC Gbytes 36.7 Gbytes [1] See Section 9.6 for details and definitions. The drive records and recovers data on approximately 2.5-inch (65 mm) non-removable discs. The drive supports the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) as described in the ANSI SCSI interface specifications to the extent described in this manual, which defines the product performance characteristics of the Savvio SCSI family of drives, and the SCSI Interface Product Manual, part number , which describes the general interface characteristics of this and other families of Seagate SCSI drives. The drive s interface supports multiple initiators, disconnect/reconnect, self-configuring host software, and automatic features that relieve the host from the necessity of knowing the physical characteristics of the targets (logical block addressing is used). The head and disc assembly (HDA) is sealed at the factory. Air circulates within the HDA through a nonreplaceable filter to maintain a contamination-free HDA environment. Never disassemble the HDA and do not attempt to service items in the sealed enclosure (heads, media, actuator, etc.) as this requires special facilities. The drive contains no replaceable parts. Opening the HDA voids your warranty. Savvio SCSI drives use a dedicated landing zone at the innermost radius of the media to eliminate the possibility of destroying or degrading data by landing in the data zone. The drive automatically goes to the landing zone when power is removed. An automatic shipping lock prevents potential damage to the heads and discs that results from movement during shipping and handling. The shipping lock automatically disengages when power is applied to the drive and the head load process begins. Savvio SCSI Product Manual, Rev. D 7

15 3.4 Reliability Mean time Between Failure (MTBF) of 1,400,000 hours LSI circuitry Balanced low mass rotary voice coil actuator Incorporates industry-standard Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) 5-year warranty 3.5 Formatted capacities Standard OEM models are formatted to 512 bytes per block. The sector size is selectable at format time. Users having the necessary equipment may modify the data block size before issuing a format command and obtain different formatted capacities than those listed. To provide a stable target capacity environment and at the same time provide users with flexibility if they choose, Seagate recommends product planning in one of two modes: 1. Seagate designs specify capacity points at certain sector sizes that Seagate guarantees current and future products will meet. We recommend customers use this capacity in their project planning, as it ensures a stable operating point with backward and forward compatibility from generation to generation. The current guaranteed operating points for this product are: ST ST Sector Size Decimal Hex Decimal Hex ,687, DCCC 143,374,744 88BB ,512, F ,025, E ,197,546 42F212A 140,395,092 85E ,914,176 41B8C00 137,828, ,766, B80 137,577, E0 2. Seagate drives also may be used at the maximum available capacity at a given sector size, but the excess capacity above the guaranteed level will vary between other drive families and from generation to generation, depending on how each sector size actually formats out for zone frequencies and splits over servo bursts. This added capacity potential may range from 0.1 to 1.3 percent above the guaranteed capacities listed above. Using the drives in this manner gives the absolute maximum capacity potential, but the user must determine if the extra capacity potential is useful, or whether their assurance of backward and forward compatibility takes precedence Programmable drive capacity Using the Mode Select command, the drive can change its capacity to something less than maximum. See the Mode Select Parameter List table in the SCSI Command Reference Manual. Refer to the Parameter list block descriptor number of blocks field. A value of zero in the number of blocks field indicates that the drive shall not change the capacity it is currently formatted to have. A number in the number of blocks field that is less than the maximum number of LBAs changes the total drive capacity to the value in the block descriptor number of blocks field. A value greater than the maximum number of LBAs is rounded down to the maximum capacity. 3.6 Factory installed accessories OEM Standard drives are shipped with the Savvio SCSI Installation Guide, part number , and the Safety and Regulatory Agency Specifications, part number (unless otherwise specified).

16 3.7 Options (factory installed) All customer requested options are incorporated during production or packaged at the manufacturing facility before shipping. Some of the options available are (not an exhaustive list of possible options): Other capacities can be ordered depending on sparing scheme and sector size requested. Single unit shipping pack. The drive is normally shipped in bulk packaging to provide maximum protection against transit damage. Units shipped individually require additional protection as provided by the single unit shipping pack. Users planning single unit distribution should specify this option. The Savvio SCSI Installation Guide, part number , is usually included with each standard OEM drive shipped, but extra copies may be ordered. The Safety and Regulatory Agency Specifications, part number , is usually included with each standard OEM drive shipped, but extra copies may be ordered. 3.8 Accessories (user installed) The following accessories are available. All accessories may be installed in the field. Single unit shipping pack. 10 Savvio SCSI Product Manual, Rev. D

[5] Access time = controller overhead + average seek time and applies to all data transfer commands. Access to data = access time + latency time. 4.3 Start/stop time After DC power at nominal voltage has been applied, the drive becomes ready within 20 seconds if the Motor Start Option is disabled (i.e. the motor starts as soon as the power has been applied). If a recoverable error condition is detected during the start sequence, the drive executes a recovery procedure which may cause the time to become ready to exceed 20 seconds. During spin up to ready time the drive responds to some commands over the SCSI interface in less than 3 seconds after application of power. Stop time is 30 seconds from removal of DC power. If the Motor Start Option is enabled, the internal controller accepts the commands listed in the SCSI Command Reference Manual less than 3 seconds after DC power has been applied. After the Motor Start Command has been received the drive becomes ready for normal operations within 20 seconds typically (excluding an error recovery procedure). The Motor Start Command can also be used to command the drive to stop the spindle (see the SCSI Command Reference Manual). There is no power control switch on the drive. 12 Savvio SCSI Product Manual, Rev. D

19 4.4 Prefetch/multi-segmented cache control The drive provides prefetch (read look-ahead) and multi-segmented cache control algorithms that in many cases can enhance system performance. Cache as used herein refers to the drive buffer storage space when it is used in cache operations. To select prefetch and cache features the host sends the Mode Select command with the proper values in the applicable bytes in Mode Page 08h (see the SCSI Command Reference Manual). Prefetch and cache operation are independent features from the standpoint that each is enabled and disabled independently via the Mode Select command. However, in actual operation the prefetch feature overlaps cache operation somewhat as is noted in Section and All default cache and prefetch Mode parameter values (Mode Page 08h) for standard OEM versions of this drive family are given in Tables Cache operation In general, 7,100 kbytes of the physical buffer space in the drive can be used as storage space for cache operations. The buffer can be divided into logical segments (Mode Select Page 08h, byte 13) from which data is read and to which data is written. The drive supports a maximum of 64 cache segments. The drive maintains a table of logical block disc medium addresses of the data stored in each segment of the buffer. If cache operation is enabled (RCD bit = 0 in Mode Page 08h, byte 2, bit 0. See SCSI Command Reference Manual), data requested by the host with a Read command is retrieved from the buffer (if it is there), before any disc access is initiated. If cache operation is not enabled, the buffer (still segmented with required number of segments) is still used, but only as circular buffer segments during disc medium read operations (disregarding Prefetch operation for the moment). That is, the drive does not check in the buffer segments for the requested read data, but goes directly to the medium to retrieve it. The retrieved data merely passes through some buffer segment on the way to the host. On a cache miss, all data transfers to the host are in accordance with buffer-full ratio rules. On a cache hit the drive ignores the buffer-full ratio rules. See explanations associated with Mode page 02h (disconnect/reconnect control) in the SCSI Command Reference Manual. The following is a simplified description of a read operation with cache operation enabled: Case A - A Read command is received and the first logical block (LB) is already in cache: 1. Drive transfers to the initiator the first LB requested plus all subsequent contiguous LBs that are already in the cache. This data may be in multiple segments. 2. When the requested LB is reached that is not in any cache segment, the drive fetches it and any remaining requested LBs from the disc and puts them in a segment of the cache. The drive transfers the remaining requested LBs from the cache to the host in accordance with the disconnect/reconnect specification mentioned above. 3. If the prefetch feature is enabled, refer to Section for operation from this point. Case B - A Read command requests data, the first LB of which is not in any segment of the cache: 1. The drive fetches the requested LBs from the disc and transfers them into a segment, and from there to the host in accordance with the disconnect/reconnect specification referred to in case A. 2. If the prefetch feature is enabled, refer to Section for operation from this point. Each buffer segment is actually a self-contained circular storage (wrap-around occurs), the length of which is an integer number of disc medium sectors. The wrap-around capability of the individual segments greatly enhances the buffer s overall performance as a cache storage, allowing a wide range of user selectable configurations, which includes their use in the prefetch operation (if enabled), even when cache operation is disabled (see Section 4.5.2). The number of segments is set dynamically by the drive and cannot be set by the host. The size in Kbytes of each segment is not reported by the Mode Sense command page 08h, bytes 14 and 15. The value 0XFFFF is always reported. If a size specification is sent by the host in a Mode Select command (bytes 14 and 15) no new segment size is set up by the drive, and if the STRICT bit in Mode page 00h (byte 2, bit 1) is set to one, the drive responds as it does for any attempt to change unchangeable parameters (see SCSI Command Reference Manual).

20 4.5.1 Caching write data Write caching is a write operation by the drive that makes use of a drive buffer storage area where the data to be written to the medium is stored in one or more segments while the drive performs the write command. If read caching is enabled (RCD=0), then data written to the medium is retained in the cache to be made available for future read cache hits. The same buffer space and segmentation is used as set up for read functions. The buffer segmentation scheme is set up or changed independently, having nothing to do with the state of RCD. When a write command is issued, if RCD=0, the cache is first checked to see if any logical blocks that are to be written are already stored in the cache from a previous read or write command. If there are, the respective cache segments are cleared. The new data is cached for subsequent Read commands. If the number of write data logical blocks exceeds the size of the segment being written into, when the end of the segment is reached, the data is written into the beginning of the same cache segment, overwriting the data that was written there at the beginning of the operation. However, the drive does not overwrite data that has not yet been written to the medium. If write caching is enabled (WCE=1), then the drive may return GOOD status on a write command after the data has been transferred into the cache, but before the data has been written to the medium. If an error occurs while writing the data to the medium, and GOOD status has already been returned, a deferred error will be generated. The Synchronize Cache command may be used to force the drive to write all cached write data to the medium. Upon completion of a Synchronize Cache command, all data received from previous write commands will have been written to the medium. Tables 15 show Mode default settings for the drives Prefetch operation If the Prefetch feature is enabled, data in contiguous logical blocks on the disc immediately beyond that which was requested by a Read command can be retrieved and stored in the buffer for immediate transfer from the buffer to the host on subsequent Read commands that request those logical blocks (this is true even if cache operation is disabled). Though the prefetch operation uses the buffer as a cache, finding the requested data in the buffer is a prefetch hit, not a cache operation hit. Prefetch is enabled using Mode Select page 08h, byte 12, bit 5 (Disable Read Ahead - DRA bit). DRA bit = 0 enables prefetch. Since data that is prefetched replaces data already in some buffer segment(s), the host can limit the amount of prefetch data to optimize system performance. The max prefetch field (bytes 8 and 9) limits the amount of prefetch. The drive does not use the Prefetch Ceiling field (bytes 10 and 11). During a prefetch operation, the drive crosses a cylinder boundary to fetch more data only if the Discontinuity (DISC) bit is set to one in bit 4 of byte 2 of Mode parameters page 08h. Whenever prefetch (read look-ahead) is enabled (enabled by DRA = 0), it operates under the control of ARLA (Adaptive Read Look-Ahead). If the host uses software interleave, ARLA enables prefetch of contiguous blocks from the disc when it senses that a prefetch hit will likely occur, even if two consecutive read operations were not for physically contiguous blocks of data (e.g., software interleave ). ARLA disables prefetch when it decides that a prefetch hit will not likely occur. If the host is not using software interleave, and if two sequential read operations are not for contiguous blocks of data, ARLA disables prefetch, but as long as sequential read operations request contiguous blocks of data, ARLA keeps prefetch enabled Optimizing cache performance for desktop and server applications Desktop and server applications require different drive caching operations for optimal performance. This means it is difficult to provide a single configuration that meets both of these needs. In a desktop environment, you want to configure the cache to respond quickly to repetitive accesses of multiple small segments of data without taking the time to look ahead to the next contiguous segments of data. In a server environment, you 14 Savvio SCSI Product Manual, Rev. D
